Himalayan Salt Lamp

A Himalayan Salt Lamp is a beautiful, natural lighting feature that emits a warm soft glow and adds peaceful beauty to any decor theme. Adding these to your home is also another way to gain the reputed benefits of Himalayan salt, an element which has been used for centuries to clear bronchial tubes of congestion for relief of common respiratory problems.The peoples of ancient cultures noticed relief of chronic respiratory symptoms while visiting salt caves and thus used them frequently as a remedy for common respiratory ailments. To this day, sufferers of asthma, allergies pneumonia, hay fever, bronchitis, sinusitis and cystic fibrosis visit modern Salt Caves around the world for this treatment, as it is known to help alleviate their symptoms.

Salt caves are constructed from several tons of Himalayan Salt blocks, the exact amount depending on the size of the cave, which are usually heated by lighting placed within the walls. The heating of the salt causes the air in the cave to be infused with a dry aerosol of tiny pharmaceutical grade salt particles. Salt Cave treatment is widely used in Eastern Europe and Russia and has been a well known natural therapy for nearly 200 years. In these parts of the world, people with chronic breathing disorders often spend two to three hours per day in salt cave grottos.
